U. 0. ASKS EARLY
PLANT SAMPLES
EUGENE, Ore. The early spring
which. Oregon has enjoyed, a season
advanced at least two months over
the average, hzs not only been a
source of enjoyment to lovers of the
out-of-doors, but is a matter of great
scientific importance as well, it was
declared here by L. 9. Henderson,
curator of the University of Oregon
herbarium. It is of utmost import
ance that data as complete; as pos
sible on all forms of vegetation In
all sections of the state be compiled,
and Professor Henderson has called
on interested people In every section
of Oregon to aid him In this work. .
' The university for' many years has
maintained an herbarium, in which
have been preserved thousands of
plants, with accurate records of which
they were taken. By using Informa
tion obtained from these records Pro
fessor Henderson1 was able to point
out the extreme enrllness of this
spring. Now .'he wants to make as
complete as possible, the collection Of
early flowers and, plants for this year,
so that in years to come this mate
rial may be used by research stu
dents and others. 1 '
Persons In any part of the state
noting early blooming plants or
flowers are urged to send them to
Frofessor Henderson, in care of the
university. If these amateur botan
ists desire any information on their
findings, this will be supplied by
Professor Henderson on request.
Professor Henderson has been col
lecting plants and observing condi
tions in this part of the country for
0 years, and states that this is by
far the earliest spring of his experi
ence. He is spending, much of his
time collecting specimens . in Lano
County, with the assistance of Sidney
King, . staff . writer for the Eugene
.Register-Guard. Co-operation of peo
ple in this county, aa well as out
over the entire state, will be neces
t sary. however, if the collection Is to
be made as complete as is desired.
Army Airman In

SAN ANTONIO Tex. (H Lieut.
Bern hard Schrlever 6 feet 2 inches
of gangling golfing power is out to
smash the links "monopoly" of the
southwest, now held by Gus Turner
Moreland of Dallas, Texas amateur
king, Trans-Mississippi champion and
member of the Walker cup team.
Stationed at March field, Riverside.
Cal., where he pilots one of Uncle
Sam's bombing planes, young Schrlev
er plans a June Invasion of Texas,
his native state.
The lanky Texan, once San- Anto
nio's amateur champion, is intent on
blasting his way into the "big time"
this summer, a chance he never has
had. The extent of his campaign,
however, depends upon U. S. army
action.
, -. Back to Native Heath
If" Vie' is'Tetifeer w the -reserve list

customary procedure for graduated
flying cadets after one year's service

"shinny" sticks and rush back to
Texas for the major tourneys. If he
Is not retired. Schrlever still plans
to take a three-weeks leave and play
in the Trans-Mississfppt and Texas
amateur meets.
Only once has Schrlever, called by
some southwestern critics "the boy
with .the perfect swing," had an op
portunity to crash into tournaments
where the competition was high
class. In 1931 he invaded north Texas for
three weeks and caused a sensation.
Unheard of, he advanced to the fin
als of the Dallas Country Club tour
nament, where Moreland bested him.
1 up at the 36th ho!e.
Two More .Moreland Wins
A few days later he suffered a
similar defeat at the hands of More
land in the semi-finals of the Texas
amateur. Shortly afterward he clash
ed with Moreland a third time in
the annual Glen Graden-Southwst-ern
tourney at Port Worth and last,
1 up. after 21 holes.
In 1932 Schrlever entered the fly
ing service at Randolph field, where
has was regarded as an outstanding
student flier. Upon graduation from
Kelly field he was transferred to Cal
ifornia, where he has been for several
months.
He nas rolled up quite a reputa
tion on the Pacific slope and recent
ly finished fourth in the Riverside
amateur-pro tournament.
Many golf followers believe he Is
"about due" to write his name along
side those of such Texas amateurs
as Moreland, Jack Muncer, seml
finallst in last year's national ama
teur, David Goldman and Reynolds
Smith.
HOW JESSE OWENS GOT
HIS NAME
CCLUMBUS. O. The given
names of Jesse Owens, sensational
Cleveland sprinter who is a fresh
man at Ohio State, are James Cleve
land. He got "Jesse" through mis.-
understanding of a school teacher ,
to whom he reported his name as '
"J. O."
Between 1925 and 1939 nearly ten
billion board feet of timber were re- ;
moved annually from the forests of
Western Oregon and Washington, ac
cording to figures compiled by the !
Pacific northwest forest experiment ;
station. These logs, cut to meet the
demands of the wood-using Indus- j
tries, would furnish enough lumber
to construct 600.000 average-sired
residences.
